How much ram do you have?
I personally upgraded from 64MB of ram up to a nice 320MB. They have 256MB memory modules out now, you don't have to buy two 128mb's anymore.
I might add another 512MB

I thought 128 was a lot when I bought my comp...but that was a year and a half ago. I could also use more...

96, yet my 350mhz can only handle like 256? oh well. More would be NICE...
192
64 from when we bought the comp + 128 about a month ago from crucial for $45

If you have 128mb ram or less clicking here (http://alpha.lexton.net/Everything/jscript.htm)
will use it up. so far it hasnt crashed my computer. its just annoying.
If it doesnt work tell me and ill fix it. (i didnt test it for obvios reasons)

Your website didn't change my RAM usage one bit. It just screwed up my browser.

I have plenty of ram....oh wait, we talking computers or women??
If we're talking about women, then what in the world could girls possibly have 512MB of?! (Mega-B***s?!) :p
I only have 64MB of RAM, how much free I'm not sure.

Gayowulf: Geo/Yahoo!?!?! :confused: BTW, I wasn't stupid enough to visit your site with IE... I browsed with NS with Javascript turned off. Maybe I'll try it with Javascript on when I have more free time.

A mere 128MB PC133, perfectly fine for me. I may add an additional 64MB because I am getting a few crashes, but not in awhile.
I won't tell. I don't want to shame myself. :o

Sorry G. Didn't do a thing to my system. I had three browsers running and Eudora was collecting so resources was already down to close to zero. I have NO RAM at all. :o

I have a Pentium 4 system and only have 128MB of RAM. The reason being that RDRAM is (or atleast was) so expensive when we bought the machine. However, I think it's gone down quite a bit (so have the price of the Pentium 4's!)
The only thing I'll really gain from adding another 128MB is that I'll be able to have more programs open at once. The performance should probably stay at around the same level.

128mb on my comp and 64mb on this one.
256 megs on a 600 MHz Athlon Classic and 48 megs on my toy PII-200 Linux box

I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as a PII-200MHz, PII-233MHz perhaps. But I'm not sure there's a Pentium 2 with 200MHz running around.
Ahhh Excuse please, my bad... It's a Pentium 200 mmx.
Still a toy

Still a toy Ah, that's what I thought. I used to have a Pentium 200... Gave it away though.
You gave your Pentium away?! As in, give-for-nothing give!?? Wow... I would've at least try to sell it to some idoit guy for a coupla hundred bucks to get a new computer or something (sorry, I'm that kinda guy.), but I would never in my right mind even consider giving it away!
Should I regard you with new respect? Or maybe your Pentium was basically broken, so you thought you had nothing to lose?

Uh...
It was a Pentium 200MHz, 32mb RAM, 2.1gb HD, 2mb video, 12x cd-rom. And no, it wasn't broken.
The person who I gave it away to needed a computer for school (or so he said) so I gave it to him in order for him to do his homework.

One of my old computers (Cyrix 233 MII) had 96 MB Ram. It keeps page faulting on and off (WIN 98). Anybody has any ideas why? I have one module of 64 MB and one of 32 MB both running at 66 MHZ. The page faulting started some time after I put in the 64 MB module. I even tried re-formatting the hard disk and re-installing everything, but it didn't work.

This (http://www.alpha.lexton.net/Everything/script.htm) Should be a little more effective in using some ram. (provided javascript is enabled)

That thing only takes up 10megs of RAM, but it effectively kills my computer :(
Gayowulf
May 8th, 2001, 23:45
Sorry :)
Ill explain what it does for those who are wondering but dont want to try
It opens up 99 diffrent windows. i could make it open 99999 windows but that would be stupid.
I found i can avoid a lockup by just Ctrl-Alt-Del, End Task the windows a couple of times.
Yepp. The trick is to kill the window that is about to hatch a new one. I always have to reboot. :(

I let it finish, only used up 96 MB RAM on my PC, although it did get the CPU usage up rather high! :)
I've got...
AMD Duron 600, 320MB RAM, 20 GB, 4/4/28 Burner, 17" Monitor & 34cm TV (Monitor).
Intel Pentium 100, 64MB RAM & 6 GB.
Along with an old laptop;
Intel Pentium 133, 32 MB RAM & 1.4 GB.

That thing only used up 10 megs of RAM for me... I wonder why it took up 96 of your RAM Supermoo...
Anyway, I couldn't close it with Windows 2000 because opening the task manager takes a window, and that website opened up too many windows (way over Windows 2000's limit) so i couldn't open the stupid task manager. I had to hard reboot :( :( :(

lol, probaly because I had a few other programs open, I normally sit on about 80MB RAM, so yeah... it was only 16 MB RAM for me... and I got through them all! :) !!!

Ok well i made it so 999 windows open (http://alpha.lexton.net/Everything). probably uses 100mb now.
Coolin
May 10th, 2001, 23:07
It'll only open about 60 on Windows 2000 (the limit)
Then I'll have to hard reboot again. So I won't even try.
